NAK. This would potentially break the poky-qemu script, which needs to 
differentiate between whether it is being run with an in-tree Poky setup 
or a standalone toolchain. See how the SDKDIR variable is set in 
poky-qemu-internal.

Mark rightly points out that hardcoded paths to SDK installations is 
kludgy and we need to move toward allowing arbitrary install locations. 
That however is going to take some coordination and edge-case planning 
before we can begin to do the refactoring. Please keep me in the loop on 
those discussions.

Thanks,

Scott
